Some people were right some people were dead wrong (propellere). This MOU is good thing people. Go read that email and then come back and tell me saving peoples jobs isn’t the right thing to do!

And its not like we are not willing to take a further cut to save your job.

Voting No is not personal. But some of us have seen this song and dance or been here long enough to hear the stories. The language in the MOU is very vague leaving a lot up for interruption (and its done like that on purpose). Like the displacement/downgrade argument, will there be another vote in 90-days or will union decide on your behalf (bc they can), what if the PSP is called something else, should we take the company at “good faith”, if we do record a profit but JO increases expenses to offset, and splitting the pilot group over contract or type. These all set bad precedents. Especially in a contract year... Unfortunately, our union is incompetent and corrupt. The junior guys think its personal and its not. Some of us are trying to protect the integrity of what was fought so hard to earn before there is nothing left.

Is it not enough that we are the lowest paid, have some of the worse hotels, have no PDC, no auto atis, no auto closeout, no digital weather, have to supply our own Ipads and mounts, outdated EPIC loads, or that the company consistently violates the contract to save money on personal. At what point is the company not already getting a bargain

Some of you want to whine about how 8 hours is going to break the bank. Cut back on your spending. Don’t order Uber eats. Pack lunches for trips. There are many things all of you “adults” can do to help out others that got into this industry at less fortunate times. Propellere? If you’re so negative and hate our ceo our mec and your fellow pilots just leave. If 8 hours is the deciding factor to go deliver boxes then go. I guarantee you probably got into this career cause you heard flight attendants are hot. And since they haven’t looked twice at you, you figured you’d get more love and attention from that amazon cardboard box grazing your fingers. Get outta here. You’re immature and a stain in the Mesa workplace.
